--- Pirate?

I could be labeled a Pirate. I download a movie, I watch the movie. If I like the movie, I go out and buy it. I dont download screeners, I personally think that is wrong.

Why do I do this? I feel I am justified. Commercials only show the best highlights and movies could suck huge king kong size %$^#'s. So why would I fork out $25-30 for a crappy movie and be stuck with that lemon. If I buy a car and its a lemon I get to take it back. This movie I cant. Every movie I have streamed and I have not liked it... Well it never has finished fully downloading.

Now on the other hand, "B" movies I would have never bought. Nor ever have been added to my collection, but due to my ability to download and watch it. Some "B" movies have made it there.

400 plus movies legally purchased and counting. Even seasons of shows, Simpsons, family guy, futurama, all current stargates and BSG. All sitting on my self displayed with pride.

Well, if I was not able to download and view these movies. Im sure my contribution to the MPAA companies. Would have been much less then what I have spent on my DvD's

But it seems some in here would call me a thief. Well if a thief is purchasing products based on a warrenty based on defective merchandise (or in my case "bad movies"). Then we are all thieves.

I completely agree with you!
I wonder how many clothing stores would stay in business if they didn't allow women to try dresses on before they bought them-and also allow them to return the dresses for a full refund within a certain time? Why do they do this? because dresses look differently on a hanger and in a well lit store then they look at home. Why should buying a DVD movie or a CD be any different? If you buy a DVD and then hate the movie, why shouldn't you be allowed to take it back-or why shouldn't you have a specified time to try it?
